Protection of Precision Cut - Goat Liver Slices By Zea Mays Leaf Extracts From Hydrogen Peroxide Induced Oxidative Stress In Vitro
Plants play an indispensable part in the environment, especially as a medication to protect man from intrinsic and extrinsic ill effects imparted by stress agents. In tune with the search of antioxidant-rich plants, the leaves of Zea mays were analyzed for its antioxidant potential at three different stages of growth. The effect of the leaf extract on the oxidant stress induced in in vitro syst...
متن کاملAnti-inflammatory effects of Zea mays L. husk extracts
BACKGROUND Zea mays L. (Z. mays) has been used for human consumption in the various forms of meal, cooking oil, thickener in sauces and puddings, sweetener in processed food and beverage products, bio-disel. However, especially, in case of husk extract of Z. mays, little is known about its anti-inflammatory effects. Therefore, in this study, the anti-inflammatory effects of Z. mays husk extract...
متن کاملNon-destructive leaf area measurement in maize (Zea mays L.).
In this research, leaf area prediction model was developed for some leaf-used maize (Zea mays L.) cultivars namely Coluna, Luce, Maveric, Ranchero, TTM-813, Zamora and RX-788 grown in Black Sea region of Turkey. Lamina width, length and leaf area were measured without destroying the leaf to develop the models. The actual leaf areas of the plants were measured by PLACOM Digital Planimeter and mu...
متن کاملEvaluation of oxidative stress tolerance in maize (Zea mays L.) seedlings in response to drought.
Seedlings of selected six genotypes of maize (Zea mays L.) differing in their drought sensitivity (LM5 and Parkash drought-tolerant and PMH2, JH3459, Paras and LM14 as drought-sensitive) were exposed to 72 h drought stress at two leaf stage. Alterations in their antioxidant pools combined with activities of enzymes involved in defense against oxidative stress were investigated in leaves. Activi...
متن کاملNitrate Reductase Activity and Polyribosomal Content of Corn (Zea mays L.) Having Low Leaf Water Potentials.
Desiccation of 8- to 13-day-old seedlings, achieved by withholding nutrient solution from the vermiculite root medium, caused a reduction in nitrate reductase activity of the leaf tissue. Activity declined when leaf water potentials decreased below -2 bars and was 25% of the control at a leaf water potential of -13 bars. Experiments were conducted to determine whether the decrease in nitrate re...
